< Joil 3 >

1 Jer, gle, u one dane i u ono vrijeme, kad vratim roblje Judino i Jerusalimsko,
For lo! in those days, and at that time, —when I shall bring back the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 Sabraæu sve narode, i svešæu ih u dolinu Josafatovu, i ondje æu se suditi s njima za svoj narod i za našljedstvo svoje Izrailja, kojega rasijaše meðu narode i razdijeliše zemlju moju;
Then will I gather all the nations, and bring them down into the Vale of Jehoshaphat, —and will enter into judgment with them there, concerning my people, and mine inheritance Israel, whom they scattered among the nations, and, my land, they apportioned;
3 I za moj narod bacaše ždrijeb, i davaše dijete za kurvu, i prodavaše djevojku za vino, te piše.
And, for my people, they cast lots, —and gave a boy for a harlot, and a girl sold they for wine—and drank.
4 I šta hoæete vi sa mnom, Tire i Sidone, i svi krajevi Palestinski? hoæete li da mi platite? i hoæete li da mi vratite? Odmah æu vam bez oklijevanja platiti platu vašu na vašu glavu.
Moreover also, what have, ye, to do with me, O Tyre and Zidon, and all the circuit of Palestine? A recompense, are ye paying back unto me? But, though ye should make a recompense unto me, swiftly, speedily, would I return your recompense upon your own head.
5 Jer uzeste srebro moje i zlato moje, i najljepše zaklade moje unesoste u svoje crkve.
Because, my silver and my gold, ye took away, —and, my richly beautiful things, carried ye into your temples;
6 I sinove Judine i sinove Jerusalimske prodadoste sinovima Grèkim da biste ih otjerali daleko od meðe njihove.
And, the sons of Judah and the sons of Jerusalem, ye sold to the sons of Greece, —that they might be far removed from their own boundary.
7 Evo, ja æu ih dignuti s mjesta kuda ih prodadoste, i platiæu vam platu vašu na vašu glavu.
Behold me! rousing them up out of the place whither ye sold them, —So will I bring back your dealing upon your own head.
8 I prodaæu vaše sinove i vaše kæeri u ruke sinovima Judinijem, i oni æe ih prodati Savejcima u narod daljni, jer Gospod reèe.
And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they will sell them to Sabeans, unto a nation afar off, —for, Yahweh, hath spoken.
9 Objavite ovo po narodima, oglasite rat, podignite junake neka doðu i idu svi vojnici.
Proclaim ye this, among the nations, Hallow a war, rouse the mighty ones, let them draw near, come up, all the men of war!
10 Raskujte raonike svoje na maèeve, i srpove svoje na koplja; ko je slab, neka reèe: junak sam.
Beat your plough-shares into swords, and your pruning-hooks into spears, —as for the weak, let him say, mighty, I am.
11 Skupite se i hodite, svi narodi unaokolo, i saberite se; tamo svedi, Gospode, junake svoje.
Give help—and come in, all ye nations on every side, and gather yourselves together, —Thither, bring down, O Yahweh, thy mighty ones!
12 Neka se podignu i doðu narodi u dolinu Josafatovu; jer æu ondje sjesti da sudim svijem narodima unaokolo.
Let the nations, be roused, and come up, into the Vale of Jehoshaphat, —for, there, will I sit to judge all the nations, on every side.
13 Zamahnite srpom, jer je žetva uzrela; hodite, siðite, jer je tijesak pun, kace se preljevaju; jer je zloæa njihova velika.
Thrust ye in the vintage knife, for, grown ripe, is the vintage, —Go in, tread down, for full is the winepress, flow over do the vats, for abundant is their wickedness.
14 Gomile, gomile u dolini sudskoj; jer je dan Gospodnji blizu u dolini sudskoj.
Multitudes, multitudes, in the vale of strict decision, —for near is the day of Yahweh, in the vale of strict decision.
15 Sunce æe i mjesec pomrknuti, i zvijezde æe ustegnuti svoju svjetlost.
The sun and the moon, have become dark, —and, the stars, have withdrawn their shining,
16 I Gospod æe riknuti sa Siona, i iz Jerusalima æe pustiti glas svoj, i zatrešæe se nebo i zemlja; ali æe Gospod biti utoèište svome narodu i krjepost sinovima Izrailjevijem.
And, Yahweh, out of Zion, will roar, and, out of Jerusalem, will utter his voice, and the heavens and the earth, shall tremble, —but, Yahweh, shall be a shelter to his people, and a refuge to the sons of Israel.
17 I poznaæete da sam ja Gospod Bog vaš, koji nastavam u Sionu, u svetoj gori svojoj; i Jerusalim æe biti svet, i tuðinci neæe više iæi po njemu.
So shall ye know that, I, Yahweh, am your God, making my habitation in Zion my holy mountain, —So shall, Jerusalem, be, holy, and, foreigners, shall pass through her no more.
18 I tada æe gore kapati slatkim vinom, i humovi æe se topiti od mlijeka, i svijem potocima Judinijem teæi æe voda, i izaæi æe izvor iz doma Gospodnjega i natopiæe dolinu Sitim.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drip sweet wine, and the hills shall flow down with milk, and, all the channels of Judah, shall flow down with waters, —and, a spring, out of the house of Yahweh, shall come forth, and shall water the torrent-valley of the acacias.
19 Misir æe opustjeti, i Edomska æe biti pusta pustinja za nasilje uèinjeno sinovima Judinijem, jer proliše krv pravu u zemlji njihovoj.
Egypt, to a desolation, shall be turned, and, Edom, to a desert most desolate, shall be changed, —because of the violence done to the sons of Judah, in that they shed innocent blood in their land.
20 A Juda æe stajati dovijeka i Jerusalim od koljena do koljena.
But, Judah, age-abidingly, shall remain, and, Jerusalem, to generation after generation.
21 I oèistiæu krv njihovu, koje ne oèistih; i Gospod æe nastavati u Sionu.
And I will free from their blood-guiltiness them whom I had not freed, —for, Yahweh, is about to make his habitation in Zion.
